Laptops probably are not anodized either?
From the picture it looks like it's the color oxide layer that took a hit.
I've dropped my silver 17pro awfully many times - it's damn slippery yet I refuse to use covers - and has no any visible damage but that hardly proves anything as it's probability that's in play here.
Depends on the laptop but most would be anodised. Pretty much everything, especially parts which interface with the consumer, will have some level of coating
I would assume almost any aluminum product is anodized, but not all anodization is the same. There are many different surfaces that anodization can create, with various cosmetic/durability tradeoffs.

I think the main difference is you’re not as likely to drop a laptop like you are with a phone.
